TCD1304 Verilog Driver for Spectrometer Project

Spend several hours to finish some verilog HDL code driving a TCD1304DG linear CCD from Toshiba. This work is intended for the CCD spectrometer project in the future.

The project will utilize a high precision 18bit SAR ADC (AD7960) to sample the CCD output at a very fast speed up to 5MSa/s. The code is written versatilely that many timing constraints can be directly reprogrammed through registers. When I finish the connection between this IP and the Zynq 7000 PS, it would be convenient to control the CCD sampling parameters from linux side.
